Escaping the Bully Victim Pattern
A bully victim pattern is surfacing publicly as we begin to confront the reality of internalized and unconscious patterns of marginalization. When we are unconscious of our own deeply internalized patterns of sexism or racism, for example, we often bully others unintentionally. Then, when our behavior is addressed openly we feel unjustly accused and collapse into victimization. However, if we are to heal personally and create social change, we must move out of this looping pattern. Join host and shaman, Christina Pratt, as she shares recent discoveries in how to create lasting transformation of the bully victim pattern through supported shadow transformation, ancestral healing, and precise, proactive soul retrieval healing. This practice moves us from healing to feel better into healing to make medicine for the community and the future.

AN
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF SHAMANISM, BY CHRISTINA PRATT
PUBLISHED BY ROSEN PUBLISHING
|
 |
"In
the age of 'new-age-pixie-channelled-authentic-extraterrestrial-
Native-American-Mayan-prophecy-reiki-rainbow-crystal-shamanism'
it is delightful to find an intelligent book
with a grasp of what shamanism really is and
I would like to recommend this book to anyone
who wants to actually study the real thing.
It's not going to teach you it all, but it's
going to give you a good eclectic breadth
of knowledge about this world of amazing traditions.
And for me I am personally delighted to be
able to put it on my book shelf... and it
saved me the trouble of writing it too!"
Nick Breeze
Wood, Editor, Sacred
Hoop, Issue
57, 2007
"On
the whole, I was impressed by Pratt's personal
understanding of diverse shamanic trance methodologies
and ceremonial traditions, and her ability
to explain those practices in unambiguous
language. In fact, I was often touched at
how she manages to deftly turn seemingly conventional
statements into insightful teachings."
-- Timothy
White, Editor, Shaman's
Drum
"...this
is not your typical compendium of facts and
field research but a reflection of (Pratt's)
deep belief that shamanism is 'a valid healing
modality that is effectively practiced throughout
the world.' …there is nothing else like
it."
Shift Magazine:
New & Noteworthy, Dec 07-Feb 08, No. 17. |

Imagine having the
following dream: A spider appears, tells you that
you need an "ego death", and then rips
you to shreds. You might think that was a bad thing.
You'd be wrong. If you look up "spiders",
"ego death", and "dismemberment"
in your handy-dandy Encyclopedia of Shamanism, you'll
discover that, shamanically speaking this dream
is in fact a powerful gift from the Spirit. Intrigued?

to know
that there are kindred spirits out there--people
who are spiritual, intelligent and brave.”

am enjoying your shows. Can not wait for
the next
one. You are so knowledgable in Shamanic practices!

USA
“Just
wanted to send kudos for another fantastic series
(Shamanism and Transforming...). Extremely
insightful and relevant to every single person I
know, myself included. I am sharing these
programs with all of my friends and clients. The
last segment of your program on transforming mental
illness was, in my opinion, the most powerful and
eloquent thing I've heard on your show all year.”
Mark L,Canada
“I
just wanted to send a heart-felt and belated "thank
you" for your show. I feel like I've
learned more about shamanism from you and some of
your guests just this year than I have from any
other human source since I discovered shamanism
over 20 years ago. …I may not always
agree with everything that's said on your program,
but I always feel incredibly enriched by what you
share with your audience.” Mark
L, Canada
“I
want to thank you so much for your previous radio
show on grounding. I am a dedicated listener, and
have had two powerful, amazing soul retrieval sessions
with you. …I love all of your shows, but this
one in particular, with its visualization and direct
teaching lead by you was so powerful and visceral
in addition to being theoretical. The grounding
visualization is changing my life already as I ask
myself each time I get fragmented, "who's
life do you want to be living?" Elana
